I don’t know if you’re in trouble, but I do know that’s poison ivy

You can still wash your skin with dish soap – lather it up without water first. Then rinse and do it again. And throw those socks in the washing machine.
It might not prevent a rash at this point but could reduce how much the irritant oil spreads around.
And yep, that’s poison Ivy.

I am super sensitive and lather up with water and laundry detergent after I find myself inadvertently in the weeds. (Look for Fels Naptha, laundry bar soap.) You may have poison ivy oil remain on your shoes. Not sure the best way to get it off them.

If you walked on your carpet with the oil on your shoes you should rent a carpet cleaner.

Some folks are not sensitive. I could roll in the stuff until I was about 35 then, one day, Bam!. The first reaction was horrendous.
Even so, if you have the oil on you, somebody that is sensitive can get a rash from you.
